	Kooky's a Coming! Hi! I am Kooky, I am Australian and I am doing a Europe Tour. I plan on coming through Germany between the 18th of October and the 22th Of October 2008. Theses dates are not rock solid yet. I am not to sure on what to see and do as of yet, but I was hoping I could meet you guys for a day, and maybe you can offer some ideas on what to see and do in Germany as the local opinion is the best.

	Well, I am not sure, I know very little about Germany and think local opinion is best. I suppose I would do the touristy stuff, cause sadly I will be a tourist. But mostly I would love to met up with you guys, individually or as a group. Also as a 19 year whimp, that I am, I don't know the language so I am kinda worried about that. I am Emma by the way! -----signature----- Where is my Home? I want to go home, Europe or Australia?

	Then don't forget to visit Hamburg, it is a really nice place, it may be a bit cold but if youre in Ireland right now you might be already used to central european summers. and it is even colder in Autumn. -----signature----- If you worry, you die.

	Why do post always vanish when they have been long... Ok, then again... There are four cities which are interesting for tourists: Berlin, Munich, Hamburg and Cologne. I can't say much about Munich, because I never really been there, but it's said to be expensive. Berlin is overrated, maybe interesting for tourists because of a bit of sightseeing, but in my view it's not a nice city. Hamburg is a lot better, because there are some interesting place, but I would suggest to meet up with a local person to get to know the city because of the limited time. And then, there's Cologne. But what shall I say about it? I live there and I love it. It's a nice and interesting city with lots of inside stories and details, which can be told and described very well by Flo/MacCaffrey. Plus you can meet up with up to four people without big plannings, since three of us live in or very close to Cologne and one just needs to take the train for 30 minutes. So, you know what my advice is without saying it, right, Emma? -----signature----- e-hermanita de pirry "I can't keep track of you WNU kids" (Inty) "It is better to expect nothing and let each moment surprise you."

	Hello Emma, I'm Kiki What are you most interested in? Museums? Old towns? Just sightseeing? I agree with Morri, Hamburg is a very beautiful town and has a lot to offer, Hannover is a beautiful one, too. -----signature----- "I can kill you with my brain" (River Tam) Padawan to Chilla

	Come to Bielefeld, it doesn't exist. Okay, it does, but I wouldn't call it a place of great touristic interest. We got a muesum, a castle and - erm a university? Okay, forget Bielefeld, got to Cologne. -----signature----- "You will kill yourself trying to live up to their expectations." "That's okay for me."

	In my opinion Berlin is really overrated, and I have no Idea why it has been popular in recent days. Munich is actually ok, i wa sthere on a classtrip. The olympia stadium has some cool architecture though. as said Hamburg is nice, especially if you like a harbour .or a lake within the heart of the city Even if you like a city whcih has a lot of bridges (2500) -----signature----- If you worry, you die.

	Hey, Berlin is a nice city, that's what at least is my opinion. And people are much nicer in Berlin than in Hamburg. Hamburg's people are a little bit "kühl", you know? -----signature----- One of the "3 crazy foreign fan forcers" Hausmann der GSFF - Bügeln, Putzen, Kochen... Alles kein Problem.

	old buildings... Lübeck, Celle, Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Weimar, Dresden, Leipzig hmmm... trains are the best way to get around anyway. the most scenic route I know, is along the river Rhine. Starting in Cologne going south. -----signature----- Europe is such an arrogant country!

	I like Berlin. What made me come study here is that it's so big and international, and it's got a great public transportation system that runs all night long, unlike in Heidelberg, Stuttgart or Karlsruhe (all places near where my parents were). I grew up in Los Angeles, so most places are too small for me- like Tübingen, which is a lovely city, but I need a big city. Bremen is not beautiful at all. I've never been to Hamburg or Hannover outside of the train station, but I've heard they're very nice. Heidelberg is beautiful, so is Tübingen. Dresden is nice. Never been to München. Münster's nice, and I've heard good things about Köln, though I've never been there myself. I liked Oldenburg, Rostock isn't very nice, Wilhelmshaven isn't that great either. If you're into old buildings, I suggest trying places that don't have much damage from the world wars. Weimar is very nice, we used to live near it. I'd personally say try to get to Berlin- not because of all the tourist attractions, but there are some great museums here, and stuff. Most tourists go see the main sights (Siegesäule, Rathaus, Dom, Brandenburger Tor, etc.) and go shopping (Kurfürstendamm and Friedrichstr.). Not that they're not worth seeing once, but there are other things to see and do here as well, away from the tourists. And the people are like people in every other city- some are nice and some are pains. It's easy to get around with a train, though it can be costly. The best would be to get a Wochenendeticket, or a ticket that you can ride more than once on. You can't take the fast trains, but it's much cheaper. And you get to see the scenery. -----signature----- Jen, High Scholar and Ponderer of all Things Verily Blue, and Official caller of Suz, Crusader of Heretics and Knight of the Blue 1000 Now sacrificing Movie Garfield
